I think that is right.

Thinking about it, Apple must have code for call forwarding for their  
own Java bridge and so on.  It may even be in the open sourced stuff,  
but I don't think there is any publicly available documentation.  The  
Objective-C forwarding is done with assembler code in their libobjc  
which is certainly public source code.
